Definitions
- the present invention provides methods for preventing or treating tumor in a subject (e.g., human or non-human animals).
- the methods comprise administration of an effective amount of chemopreventive or therapeutic agents that stop or reduce generation of mutant stem cells in vivo, that reverse progression of premalignant stem cells that have at least one genetic mutation, or that eliminate premalignant stem cells and tumor stem cell populations.
- the chemopreventive or therapeutic agents act on premalignant stem cells and tumor stem cells via intracellular, intercellular and tissue pathways that modulate the rate of premalignant or tumor stem cell proliferation. In some methods, chemopreventive or therapeutic agents act on premalignant stem cells and tumor stem cells via intracellular, intercellular or tissue pathways that modulate the number of premalignant or tumor stem cells in vivo. In some other methods, the chemopreventive or therapeutic agents act on premalignant stem cells and tumor stem cells via pathways involving growth factors, cytokines, and their receptors including those that function via autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine loops which control premalignant or tumor stem cells.
- the chemopreventive or therapeutic agents act on premalignant stem cells and tumor stem cells via cell-to-cell or cell-to-matrix signaling pathways including epithelial stem cell-epithelial stem cell, epithelial stem cell-to-stromal cell, and stem cell-local extracellular matrix environmental interactions or communications.
- the chemopreventive or therapeutic agents act on premalignant stem cells and umor stem cells via biological pathways that function during development, which lead to the generation of premalignant or tumor stem cells during the development of a subject.
- the chemopreventive or therapeutic agents act on premalignant stem cells and tumor stem cells via immunological pathways that control premalignant or tumor stem cells.
- the scheme also shows stem cells (ST) as the initial cell type for generation of Gi phase cells (ST -> G , which simulates the biologic mechanism by which stem cells at the crypt base generate progeny cells for crypt cell renewal (59).
- ST and the differentiation pathways are coupled to the cell cycle at the phase (60).
- pathways for de-differentiation of D cells D- Gi
- proliferation of non- terminally differentiated cells D - S
- Cell loss is depicted by exit of AC cells from the system, which simulates biological extrusion of apoptotic cells at the crypt lumen (61).
- the CPD Model design also includes two feedback loop mechanisms (dashed arrows in Figure 1).
- the TD cell population regulates two steps, D - S and G ⁇ — » S.
- the apoptotic (AC) cell population regulates three steps, Gi - D, D ⁇ TD, and TD -» AC.
- Parameters that were incorporated into the model included initial number of ST cells (ST°) and eleven rate constants that govern the rate of the various cell cycle and differentiation/apoptosis steps.
- A The biological data from FAP and control crypts.
- the biological data modified from those of Potten (7), are displayed as the percent of bromodeoxyuridine- labeled cells as a function of cell position along the crypt axis for both healthy unaffected human controls (open circles) and FAP patients (solid diamonds).
- Comparison of the FAP LI to control LI shows that the FAP proliferative abnormality (resulting from a germline APC mutation) involves a shift in the LI toward the crypt top.
- the FAP LI as compared to the control LI shows a shift in the S-phase curve peak position from 20% to 31.25% along the crypt axis while a slight decrease was observed in the peak height from 25.58% to 23.65% S-phase cells.
- This proliferative abnormality does not appear to involve hyperproliferation because the total number of labeled cells in FAP crypts is not significantly increased (i.e. the FAPrcontrol ratio for "area-under-the-curve" is 1.05).
- Figure 1 a computer model ( Figure 1) is used to study the cellular mechanism that links a cancer predisposing germline mutation to the earliest known tissue change in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC).
- CRC colorectal cancer
- Theoretical interpretation of complex processes based on mathematical modeling has several advantages. First, modeling provides a defined and quantitative context in which different outcomes can be evaluated and compared following changes in one or more input parameters. Second, modeling can be used to quantitatively test the validity of proposed mechanisms. Finally, modeling provides a rapid and practical method to conduct "experiments" that cannot, because of system complexity, be accomplished by in vitro or in vivo approaches.
- the tumorigenic process in one hereditary form of CRC familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an ideal system for a modeling study since both the initiating genetic event and earliest tissue change have been identified.
- the initiating genetic event in FAP tumors and in most sporadic CRC is a mutation in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene (2).
- APC adenomatous polyposis coli
- the earliest known tissue change resulting from a germline APC mutation is an alteration in the distribution of DNA-synthesizing (S phase) cells in histologically normal-appearing colonic crypts of FAP patients.
- the labeling index (LI) based on tritium-labeled thymidine and bromodeoxyuridine uptake when compared to control crypts from healthy unaffected individuals, displays a shift upwards, away from the crypt base and towards the crypt top (3-7).
- the S phase cell distribution (LI) profiles for control and FAP crypts, plotted as S phase cell percent vs. crypt axis position, are displayed in Figure 2 (data of Potten et al
- the CPD model design simulates the cellular dynamics of the colonic crypt ( Figure 1).
- the model takes into account: (1) that cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis occur continuously in the crypt (16-18), (2) that as epithelial cells migrate up the crypt column they change in their capacity for cell division and differentiation (19), and (3) that the crypt, even in FAP patients, represents a highly regulated steady-state system whereby a constant number of cells is maintained via a balance between cell generation in the lower part of the crypt and cell loss at the top of the crypt (7).
- Rate constants for each step in the CPD model (see Figure 1 and accompanying legend) and rate equations for the rate of change of each cell type population as a function of time were written (20). Computation was performed by numerical integration (21,22) using an iteration method described previously for other models (23, 24). CPD Model output was graphically displayed as the percent of S-phase cell population (Y- axis) as a function of cell crypt axis position (X-axis). The biological data sets of Potten et al (7) for LI of control and FAP crypts (Fig 2 A) were used because these data appeared to be based on one of the most valid and thorough studies available.
- This model of CRC initiation via stem cell overproduction may be generally relevant and also explain the initiation of many other cancer types.
- CPD modeling provides the basis of yet another hypothesis, namely, that
- APC normally functions to control the number of stem cells in the colonic crypt. While this regulatory property of APC has not yet been described, indirect biological evidence is consistent with this hypothesis.
- germline inactivation of Tcf4 transcription factor leads to depletion of epithelial stem cell compartments in the small intestine (34).
- APC controls stem cell numbers
- the remaining wild-type APC allele is lost (i.e. the second hit according to Knudson's hypothesis (39))
- a further increase in the number of stem cells will occur.
- mutation of both APC alleles is sufficient for the growth of early colorectal adenomas in FAP patients (41). Therefore, a logical mechanism for adenoma development is further clonal expansion of the stem cell population due to a second hit in APC.
- the "stem cell overproduction” mechanism is also consistent with the stem cell model of tumor growth based on the concept of hierarchical proliferation (46, 47).
- the hierarchical concept holds that neoplasms have a cell-renewal hierarchy that is similar to normal tissues and tumors contain three types of cells: i) proliferating, self- renewing stem cells, ii) proliferating non-renewing transitional cells, and iii) non- proliferating, differentiated end cells (48).
- the hierarchical concept also proposes that although the stem cell component of tumors is a small subset within the total cell population, its expansion constitutes growth of tumors.
- That cancer originates from stem cells is not anew concept (49,50), particularly in relation to the origin of leukemias (51-54) and of teratomas (55,56). Indirect evidence also supports a stem cell origin for solid tumors such as CRC. Since tumorigenesis in the colon is a relatively slow process, short-lived non-stem cell populations within crypts are considered an unlikely origin of CRC (14). Additionally, histological evidence from Min/+ mice indicates that multiple differentiated cell types exist in intestinal adenomas, which suggests a stem cell origin for intestinal tumors (15). The present study provides a mechanism for how stem cells are involved in the origin of CRC.
- CPD modeling has provided insight into the "enormous complexities" of tumorigenesis and has provided a theoretical foundation to understand carcinogenesis in the colon.
- Results from CPD Model experiments have also provided a theoretical basis for our "stem cell overproduction" hypothesis in CRC development.
- Rate Constant Values (k 0 to kw) that gave the best fit for both control and FAP biological data were, respectively: 0.05, 0.03, 0.025,
- Rate constants represent inverse relative time units.
- Rate equation sets were solved by numerical integration with Mathematica equation- solving software [Mathematica Wolfram Research, Inc., Version 2.2, License # L2516-9472].
